init: initialize jump labels before command line option parsing
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
When a module option, or core kernel argument, toggles a static-key it
requires jump labels to be initialized early.  While x86, PowerPC, and
ARM64 arrange for jump_label_init() to be called before parse_args(),
ARM does not.

  Kernel command line: rdinit=/sbin/init page_alloc.shuffle=1 panic=-1 console=ttyAMA0,115200 page_alloc.shuffle=1

  static_key_enable(): static key 'page_alloc_shuffle_key+0x0/0x4' used
  before call to jump_label_init()

Move the fallback call to jump_label_init() to occur before
parse_args().

The redundant calls to jump_label_init() in other archs are left intact
in case they have static key toggling use cases that are even earlier
than option parsing.
